I have Yamaha CS1X which has "to host" interface that output midi to a serial port. I'm not sure if this is supported by alsa-drivers at all but here is what I get:
system: ThinkPad, linux-2.4.21, alsa-driver 0.9.6 , gentoo-linux
---------------
#setserial /dev/ttyS1 uart none ( i that on the LAD list, but even before doing got the
same results as below. btw, UART was 16550A before that)
# setserial -a /dev/ttyS1 /dev/ttyS1, Line 1, UART: unknown, Port: 0x02f8, IRQ: 3
Baud_base: 115200, close_delay: 50, divisor: 0
closing_wait: 3000
Flags: spd_normal skip_test
I don:t have /dev/ttyS0 ???
# modprobe snd-serialmidi OK!!! #modprobe -r snd-serialmidi
#modprobe snd-serial-u16550 snd_port=0x02f8 snd_irq=3 snd_index=0 snd_sdev=/dev/ttyS1
Warning: ignoring snd_port=0x02f8, no such parameter in this module
Warning: ignoring snd_irq=3, no such parameter in this module
Warning: ignoring snd_index=0, no such parameter in this module
Warning: ignoring snd_sdev=/dev/ttyS1, no such parameter in this module
/lib/modules/2.4.21_LL_01/kernel/sound/drivers/snd-serial-u16550.o: init_module: No such device
Hint: insmod errors can be caused by incorrect module parameters, including invalid IO or IRQ parameters.
You may find more information in syslog or the output from dmesg
/lib/modules/2.4.21_LL_01/kernel/sound/drivers/snd-serial-u16550.o: insmod /lib/modules/2.4.21_LL_01/kernel/sound/drivers/snd-serial-u16550.o failed
/lib/modules/2.4.21_LL_01/kernel/sound/drivers/snd-serial-u16550.o: insmod snd-serial-u16550 failed
and syslog says : [kernel] no UART detected at 0xffff
----------------
I read all I could find, alsa-project, google etc. but I have no idea where the problem is.
Also, what is the difference between snd-serialmidi and snd-serial-u16550 ?
Is my system supported at all?
Thanks ,
Rossen
